REMEMBER - SAFETY FIRST
This satellite receiver has been designed and built to provide years of trouble-free
service. The receiver has been manufactured to meet international safety standards
but, as with any electrical equipment, you must take care if you want to obtain the best
results and operate your receiver safely.
We recommend that your satellite system be installed by a qualified satellite TV
installation engineer; this manual does, however, contain instructions on how to
install your receiver in case you wish to do this yourself.
To obtain the best results from your receiver, it is important that you read this manual
completely, especially the safety instructions below.
SAFE USE OF EQUIPMENT
• Ensure that all electrical connections are properly made in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions (see below - Connection to the Mains Supply).
TO AVOID THE RISK OF A FATAL ELECTRIC SHOCK:
• DO NOT REMOVE THE COVER OF THE UNIT WITHOUT FIRST
DISCONNECTING THE RECEIVER FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY.
• NEVER ALLOW ANYONE, ESPECIALLY CHILDREN, TO PUSH ANYTHING
INTO HOLES, SLOTS OR ANY OTHER OPENING IN THE CASE.
• Do not obstruct the receiver's ventilation slots; never stand the receiver on soft
furnishings or carpets.
• Do not use or store the receiver in excessively hot, cold, damp or dusty conditions.
• Always put the receiver into standby mode when it is not in use.
• If you have any doubts about the installation, operation or safety of the receiver,
please consult your dealer.

CONNECTION TO THE MAINS SUPPLY
This apparatus operates within the range of 220-240 V AC, 50 Hz mains supplies.
DO NOT CONNECT IT TO DC MAINS. The lead is supplied terminated at one end
with a connector to be inserted into the mains input socket on the rear panel of the
apparatus.
MAINS LEAD PLUG CONNECTIONS (UK AND EIRE)
The mains lead supplied may or may not have a non-rewireable (moulded) plug.
Please see the section marked with an asterisk (*) if the supplied mains lead does not
have a non-rewireable plug fitted.
Mains leads fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporate a fuse, the value
of which is indicated on the pin face of the plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced,
an ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362 fuse must be used of the same rating, marked
thus:
If the fuse cover is detachable always refit the cover after replacing the fuse. NEVER
use the plug with the fuse cover omitted.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets it should be cut off, after having
first removed the fuse, and an appropriate plug fitted in its place. If this new plug
contains afuse its value should be the same as that removed from the non-rewireable
plug.
The severed plug must be destroyed immediately to avoid the possible shock hazard
should it be inserted into a 13 A socket elsewhere.
*IF YOU NEED TO FIT A MAINS PLUG THEN FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS
GIVEN BELOW:
Important: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the
following code:
BLUE - Neutral (N) BROWN - Live (L)
As these colours may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the
terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
